Epmty Song

No I am do not merely write songs about my personal experience. A lot of what I write are things that people shared with me. I reach out to them, I feel their pain. I have compassion for them. I wish I could give them the faith I've got that kept me strong for so long. Besides praying for them and trying to encourage them. I always try to express their feelings into a song. And thru the song, I hope that they will see that life's trouble are not bad, they are sound good over a a melody and I try to shed some light into their situation and point them to the Lord Jesus.

Jesus, am I living as I should be
You went thru all the sufferings
To set the captives free
Honestly I am struggling on my feet
To keep myself from stumbling
From falling into the ditch
Some say living life's a trouble
Some say living life's a bitch
Water runs dry in the desert
Life is empty though I'm rich
I'm running on empty

Lately I'm not sleeping as I should be
It's useless counting shepherds
When the sheep has gone to sleep
Fantasy has been my favourite company
I live my life in make-believe
It's the best thing I have done for me
Some say living life is playing
We are actors in our world
What controls us is what holds us
We are puppets on a string
We're running on empty

Jesus, I am falling on my knees
I want to be your servant
Though the journey is bitter-sweet
I believe that You will come to me
We'll walk upon the streets of gold
If I hang on to You
I will put all of my heart in
I will put my trust in You
I have nothing left to offer
I have nothing left to lose
Coz I'm running on empty
